PEI among leaders n proAction initiative

Title

Abstract

Island dairy producers are leading in the implementation of the proActive program that is designed to focus on six key areas: milk quality, food safety through Canadian Quality Milk, livestock traceability, animal care, biosecurity and the environment. Harold MacNevin president of the Dairy Farmers of PEI notes that virtually all producers in the province are already following the Canadian Milk Quality program that will become mandatory for all milk producers in 2015. The proActive program follows what is known as the HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) approach that seeks to identify potential problems or hazards and then develops steps to eliminate or minimize those hazards.
